Under, but I ’ m
going to drill her until I get information. ”
“ She ’ s part of it? ” Blaine asked, his eyes wide. “ Bro, we need to chain her up and
gut her …”
“ Let me
do what I need to do here, ” Landon said. “ Okay? Promise
me, Blaine, okay? ”
“ As long
as you help me with my friend over there, ” Blaine said. He put his hands up. “ Not
tonight, but soon. ”
Landon looked at the reliever at the end of the bar.
Pussy was pussy, right? None of it really mattered.
“ Fine, ” Landon said. “ But we do it like you said. And
we ’ re not going to be
fucking naked. That shit is too close for comfort as it is. ”
“ Deal, ” Blaine said. “ Now let me share the news with
her and see if she wants to celebrate a little with me. I should be good for at
least a hand job. ”
“ Christ, ” Landon whispered.
Blaine walked away and Landon ordered one more shot. He
downed it and then left the bar. The hallway looked a little fuzzy at first but
his senses were just fine. A little weed and whiskey always made the body feel
right. Tonight, Landon needed to crack Avery wide open and figure out who the
hell she was and why she was in town. Inside, he knew part of the reason he
told Blaine about her was so that Blaine would keep his head on straight. Just
in case anything happened …
Landon opened the door to the bedroom and saw Avery pop up
from the bed. She had been sleeping.
“ Don ’ t mind me, ” Landon said.
“ Sorry, ” Avery said. “ Fell asleep. Haven ’ t been in a bed in a while. ”
Landon shut the door and locked it. He took off his leather
cut and stood in a black t-shirt and jeans. He hooked his thumbs into his
pockets and stared at Avery.
Fuck, she was beautiful … and naturally sexy …
“ Where
have you been sleeping? ”
“ Last
night? I slept in a bakery. ”
Landon felt his lip curling. “ What
the fuck does that mean? ”
“ I ’ m not here with anyone, ” Avery said. “ If that ’ s what you ’ re
getting at. I didn ’ t mean
to drop that motorcycle near your MC. I ’ m
sorry for how that looked. Since then I ’ ve
been hiding around here waiting for my leg to heal to make a decision on my
next move. ”
“ Next
move, ” Landon said. “ Which is what? ”
“ If I
knew, I wouldn ’ t be here, ” Avery said.
Landon leaned against the bed. “ You know, that kind of attitude won ’ t get you far with me. You ’ re not tough, sweetheart. You ’ re scared to death right now.
You can put up your fucking wall, but I can see it in your eyes. ”
“ Then I ’ ll shut my eyes when I talk, ” Avery said.
“ If you ’ re not going to talk about what
I want to hear, then don ’ t
talk at all. ”
Landon felt himself inching even closer to Avery. He was
drunk and high and he wanted Avery. His mind tried to push through the cloud in
his head to tell him this was a bad idea, but his heart and cock were ready to
go.
“ I don ’ t know what you want from me, ” Avery said. “ I didn ’ t do anything here. ”
“ You ’ re going to tell me everything, ” Landon said. “ Whether you like it or not.
Because if you don ’ t, you ’ ll die. ”
“ And if
I tell you everything? ”
“ You
might end up dead, ” Landon
said.
“ Some
choice. ”
“ Some
life to live, ” Landon said.
Avery swallowed hard and sat up straight. Landon slowly
reached down and let his fingers run through Avery ’ s hair. It was soft, slightly knotty, but when it
moved from behind her ears to her face, it made her look even better.
“ Do it, ” Landon said. “ Right now. ”
Avery placed a hand between Landon ’ s legs and cupped him. Her face looked shocked at
the realization that he was already hard. Landon smiled.
Avery applied pressure and squeezed. Landon wasn ’ t in the mood to play games. He
didn ’ t need seduction or
foreplay. There wasn ’ t
enough time in life to waste messing around. It was about sex, about fucking,
about
